'The Hard Times of RJ Berger': First look at Amy, RJ's geek-chic tutor

]]>“The Hard Times of RJ Berger” is about to introduce a new player into
its already established love triangle between RJ, Lily (Kara Taitz) and
Jenny (Amber Lancaster). When RJ’s grades begin to slip, he’s forced to
seek help from a tutor. Little does he know what’s coming his way.
We have an exclusive sneak peek at the very first scene featuring
singer/actress Caitlin Crosby as Amy, the geek-chic tutor. In the clip,
we see RJ fantasize about her half naked in a school girl outfit (which
totally reminds us of fellow MTV star Jenni “J-Woww” Farley). Watch as
Amy calls RJ out and tells him, “Girls can tell when you’re doing that.”
Zap2it spoke with Crosby about her character on the show, whom she describes as the “Anti-Popular-People-Person.”
“She starts out as the tutor and she’s very opposite of the blonde,
Jenny Swanson,” Crosby tells us. “Which may or may not be refreshing for
RJ… My character is kind of the voice of reason. She gives RJ a lot of
good advice, and she’s really intelligent and has a good heart.”
Adding, “I don’t know if she’s better [than Jenny]. I think [RJ and Amy] have a little bit more in common.”
We can guess where this is going…
Crosby, a natural blonde, dons fake glasses and dyed her hair for the
part. But one aspect of her true self that viewers may get a peek at is
her music. We’re told that Amy will front a punk band later in the
season.
Crosby will appear in all eight of the remaining episodes in Season 2.
Watch the exclusive clip below, and tune in to “Hard Times” Monday (Apr.
18) at 10 PM on MTV.
